New Charge Post Supports All Emerging Charging Standards for Electric Vehicles

PARIS MOTOR SHOW, October 4, 2010 - Epyon, a European leader in intelligent charging solutions for electric
vehicles, today announced the Terra Combo Charge Post, a fast charging post
that supports both AC and DC connection standards. The post is the first in
the industry that allows vehicles with different charging standards to be
charged at the same post simultaneously, making this station very
cost-effective for utility providers, parking lots, local municipalities and
petrol stations.

The Terra Combo Charge Post will be displayed at the Nissan booth at the
Paris Motor Show.

"We believe in choice and want to offer a solution for both AC- and DC-
powered electric vehicles," said Hans Streng, CEO of Epyon. "We don't want
our customers to choose which standard to support. With the Terra Combo
Charge Post, users will be able to charge most types of electric vehicles in
15 to 30 minutes. We are very proud of the trust Nissan is showing us by
having the Terra Combo Charge Post on their booth at the Paris Motor Show."

The Terra Combo Charge Post

The Terra Combo Charge Post has a user-friendly interface and will
support a DC CHAdeMO-compliant connection up to 50kW. The AC connection can
be delivered according to the available standards in Europe: Mennekes, SCAME
or J1772.

This combination of AC and DC will allow compatibility with all electric
vehicles entering the market starting December 2010. Payment methods can be
implemented according to customers' preferences via RFiD or other POS
systems. The space-saving design will allow easy placement at commercial
areas and forecourts.
